Dual-monitor HDMI KVM switch

The StarTech SV231DHU34K6 connects two HDMI computers to a single dual-display console with USB keyboard, mouse and 3.5 mm audio. It supports 4K 60 Hz HDR10 on both monitors through HDMI 2.0 ports and includes a two-port USB 3.0 hub plus four dedicated USB 1.1 HID ports for peripherals. Switching is handled by front push buttons or programmable hotkeys.

Users who need two 4K displays from dual systems

This unit suits operators managing two workstations or a workstation and a laptop where dual 3840 x 2160 output at 60 Hz is required. It will not serve buyers who need more than two video inputs, DisplayPort or USB-C video connectivity, rack mounting, or on-screen display menus. The built-in USB 3.0 hub runs at 5 Gbps and the HID ports operate at USB 1.1 speeds.

Deciding specification: dual 4K 60 Hz over HDMI 2.0

The switch delivers 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz on two monitors simultaneously with EDID and HDCP 2.2 emulation, a combination that determines whether it fits a given dual-head workflow. If the installation demands higher refresh rates, more than two sources, or a different video interface, this model will not meet the requirement.

Questions about this item

How does 4K 60Hz on two monitors behave when I am actually working?

The switch delivers 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz to each display simultaneously through HDMI 2.0 with EDID and HDCP 2.2 emulation, so both screens keep their native resolution and HDR10 without flicker during switching.

What does the USB 3.0 hub limit in real use?

The front-facing hub runs at 5 Gbps (USB 3.1 Gen 1) and shares that bandwidth across two console ports, so high-throughput devices such as external SSDs will compete with each other for the 5 Gbps pipe.

What does the unit need to sit on a desk and stay put?

Four adhesive rubber feet are included; the steel chassis measures 2.30 x 6.30 x 3.90 inches and weighs 1.72 lbs, so it stays stable without brackets or rack rails.
